Giraffe Overlook

Take a stroll across the elevated viewing platform and get eye-to-eye with a giraffe. The covered boardwalk gives guests a breathtaking view across a replica of the African Savanna. Giraffe walk and graze freely in this 2.5 acre exhibit adjacent to the Savanna Blooms botanical gardens.

As part of a collaboration between the Zoo and Jacksonville University called The Science Of..., we produced a video that shows you what giraffes eat other than the delicious leaves you can feed them on the Overlook.
